    Where we live the cut-off is Dec. 1st. DD is an end of Nov. so she started school at 4. So it still happens.

    I hadn't realized the cutoff dates were so variable:

    Aug 1 in Missouri to Dec 31 for Hawaii and Maryland

    That's one of the reasons I find this nonsense that so many school systems pull about "no early entry no matter what," even when a child misses the cutoff date by mere days, to be such malarkey.

    Utterly senseless bureaucracy!
